The Brothers’ Keepers by NLB Horton

she learns that her daughter is missing in France and her daughter-in-law is attacked while in Switzerland. Once Maggie and Becca are found, a partial scroll is discovered and the undercover agent Madison family begins a journey following the trail to find the other half of the ancient relic. The hunt leads to several different locations in Venice, Rome, Germany, the Mediterranean, London, and Israel as they dodge bullets and would-be assassins searching for the same item.

The Brothers’ Keepers is the second installment in the Parched series that follows Grace Madison on archaeological adventures mixed with action that includes her immediate family members who are also CIA agents. The second book is full of locations associated with the discovered relic that pertain to King Solomon and a possible hidden water reservoir that could serve under-served eastern and third world countries. The theme is plausible and written with humor as the group travels from city to city with a budding romance in the making. The book is entertaining and an enjoyable read for adventure, action, light romance, and archaeological buff readers who will not be disappointed. The third installment in the series of novels due to be released in the fall of 2015 will probably continue the story where it ends in the second book.
